Nathan Colin Peters - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Nathan Colin Peters is an established researcher in the field of Infectious Diseases, affiliated with the Snyder Institute for Chronic Diseases at the University of Calgary. He holds positions in the Departments of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infectious Diseases within the Cumming School of Medicine, as well as in Comparative Biology and Experimental Medicine at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. His work primarily revolves around understanding immune responses to pathogens, with a particular focus on diseases such as Leishmaniasis.

Research Contributions

Nathan Colin Peters has made significant contributions to the understanding of immune mechanisms in response to infectious diseases, particularly the pathogen Leishmania. His research explores the dynamics of CD4+ T cell-mediated immunity, the interaction of host cells with pathogens, and the development of potential vaccination strategies. His work on the Th1-Th2 cross-regulation and the role of reactive oxygen species in controlling inflammation during Leishmania infections has been influential. Peters' studies are pivotal in advancing molecular techniques for detecting infections and in developing novel approaches for non-living vaccines.

Aliases

Nathan Colin Peters is also known by several variations of his name, including Nathan C. Peters, Nathan Peters, Nathan\u2004c. Peters, and N C Peters. These aliases are used interchangeably in academic publications and citations.
